About

Designing for a more beautiful future.

 

You can call me Holly.

I graduated in Digital Design and Communication Arts at Teesside University in 2013, my work and dissertation on “Rebellious graffiti to the art of Banksy” received a 1st Class Honours, all while interning for an award winning digital design & web agency, Calm. I have family in Australia and celebrated my graduation there spending the summer to indulge myself in their art, culture and way of life. I returned to Newcastle,UK to work at the digital marketing agency, Daykin & Storey developing products and creating responsive modular web designs (a new thing at the time) for nearly three years, making some really great friends in the North East along the way.

I try to balanced my day job with personal creative work, like photography, illustration and interior design ( I love making things “Look Good”. I believe all these skills lead me into an another award winning duel Marketing & Hospitality Agency, balancing Digital Design at ADAO & Hotel Marketing at UP Hotel Agency created an incredible learning experience. Eventually, I started managing large creative contracts with well known brands like The Hari & Hermes, moving to the in-house team at Greggs. Iv’e worked on some super cool projects with large budgets, and big ideas, working with truly inspirational minds. Iv’e learnt from the some of the best, enjoying the process and incorporating my own outlook, style and design strategy continues to be phenomenal.

My creative approach—no matter the medium—is to find the human emotional interaction for any given experience. Asking what the end desire is to any project, and make sure we feel it; Not just see it. For me, design is a way of arresting your audience. It’s a way to plant a little bit of desire in their hearts; a yearning to turn the page and learn more about that ‘thing’. Ultimately, it’s about creating memorable images, to really connect with others… and there’s a science to that.

Im so blessed and grateful for the knowledge I have gained, paired with my own passions for Environmental & Art activism, I now choose to only collaborate and share my skills with businesses that do good for people and the planet. I showcase my work for freelance opportunities, opening my design skills for emerging brands, I also offering my services to charitable causes that are close to my heart and run my own Charity-led company The Good Jumper Club all while travelling the Europe in our 1970’s Mercedes camper with my partner and pooch.

I enjoy meeting new people, listening to their stories, asking difficult questions and creatively problem solving any struggles, taking great pride in seeing many of my clients or projects succeed in a positive direction.
I offer a wide range of services, if you have a business that could require a new perspective, I can offer knowable advice, develop your creative offerings or support on a specific project. I run diagnostics on proposals, websites, branding and social media, providing clients with feedback to improve themselves and achieve their desired goals. I work on a solo basis, offering one-off project work and retainer packages or along side existing marketing and creative teams, if you would like to know more or would like us work together, let’s talk.
